But there's a lot there it's hard to argue with if you've paid any attention at all to this world.

One thing it communicated I do not know if it was the author's intent to get across. The book is so thoroughly centered on womyn that by the end I got some sense of how a girl might feel getting through ostensibly 'neutral' works that were actually thoroughly centered on men, whether this was intended or not, merely by the conventions of language employed.
